FCC Notice
Part 15 of the Federal Communication Commission Rules and Regulations has established Radio
Frequency (RF) emission limits to provide an interference free radio frequency spectrum. Many
electronic devices produce RF energy incidental to their intended purpose.
Class A Equipment
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used
in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which
case the user will be required to correct the interference at personal expense.
Modifications
The FCC requires the user to be notified that any changes or modifications made to Avid
hardware that are not expressly approved by Avid Technology may void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
Cables
Connections to Avid hardware must be made with shielded cables with metallic RFI/EMI
connector hoods in order to maintain compliance with FCC Rules and Regulations.
